TV star Lorraine Kelly had a sly dig at Boris Johnson amid rumours the premier could become the unlikely star of the latest reality TV show.
Celebrity insiders are openly discussing the chances of the Prime Minister donning a disguise and busting some moves in the upcoming series of The Masked Dancer.
A spin-off of ITV favourite The Masked Singer, the show launches soon and sees a line-up of mystery celebrities hitting the dance floor in costumes.
Instead of guessing who is under the mask from their vocals, viewers and the judges will have to make predictions from their dance moves.
The Daily Record reports how rumours are rife that Boris Johnson could appear on the show and boogie in disguise.
During Friday's episode of Lorraine, showbiz presenter Ria Hebden claimed the Prime Minister is one of the names tipped to take part, wearing the scruffy "scarecrow" outfit.
"He don’t need a costume," quipped 61-year-old Lorraine, in an apparent dig at the Boris Johnson's bedraggled appearance.
As Lorraine burst into hysterics, Ria said: "Stop it!"
Other names apparently rumoured to be donning the costumes included Stephen Mulhern and Phillip Schofield.
There's no way of knowing yet as the series hasn't even started, while no launch date has been confirmed.
Once the series kicks off, the viewers and the judges will no doubt be hard at work trying to crack the identities of each character.
The characters taking part are Frog, Beetroot, Viper, Rubber Chicken, Flamingo, Knickerbocker Glory and Llama.
Also on the bill are Zip, Carwash, Beagle, Squirrel and Scarecrow, with Joel Dommett hosting.
On the judging panel is The Masked Singer's Jonathan Ross, Davina McCall and Mo Gilligan, and Strictly Come Dancing star Oti Mabuse.
The show has been a success in the US, so there's hope it can do as well here in the UK.
